"The work that Compass Design did on our 12-year-old boat made it look new again. We wanted to change the stripes and name on our boat, but didn’t really know what style or color we wanted to go with. Kathy and Paul were able to give us several suggestions, and sent them to us via e-mail. We were able to make our decision without driving out to the boat storage building, and once we did make our decision, they started on the work immediately. They completed the job in a short amount of time as well. Once our boat was in the water, several people at our marina asked when we bought a new boat. They could not believe that removing the old stripes and name, and adding some new ones of a different color could make such a big difference. If anyone is considering a change of this type for their boat, we would highly recommend calling Compass Design." - Mike and Kris Dykema, Owners of “Current Chaser”


"The Lakes Mall, located in Muskegon, Michigan, is a 700,000 square foot regional shopping center owned and managed by CBL and Associates Properties, Inc. We began our relationship with Compass Design in preparation for our Grand Opening on August 15, 2000, and we were pleased with their prompt and courteous response, as well as their quality craftsmanship. We have since continued the relationship and consider them one of our most trustworthy and dependable vendors." - Rich Pangratz, General Manager, The Lakes Mall


"I’m proud to be able to provide this statement regarding your company. Each project that you and your company did for me exceeded all my expectations. From the large red neon “Fricano’s” sign, to the “3 dimensional” multi-colored stationary sign, to the Curtain Roll Factory Bar Banner, each were exactly what my design team and I wanted. You were even able to “age” the banner and create the illusion of leather, while still using canvas and thus saving me huge material expense.

You were aware of the expense of each sign, and you thoroughly explained how each sign was to be made, keeping me posted throughout the project. Your reassurance was comforting. I bid the project out to other sign manufacturers and your quote came less than the others. I look forward to working with you and Compass Design in the future. Best Wishes for a prosperous future." - Ted Fricano

"Compass Design has been a pleasant experience for all of us on the Fruitport Library Board. Out new Fruitport Library sign has been installed and now our public can finally find us! We are pleased with the excellent quality of the material you suggested that would endure weather and normal wear and tear.

The sample signs you created helped us decide on colors and wording. You changed them several times at our request as we thought of different ideas.

The whole process was pleasant for us because of your attempts to please us, your professional and timely manner, and overall helpfulness. Thank you for guiding us from the beginning of the process all the way to actually installing the sign." - Rose Dillon, Library Chair, Fruitport Library


"I just wanted to send you a note saying thanks for the wonderful work that you did for me. My business has been doing well in it first year, and I feel that the design and production you did for me on my office and truck fleet signage was part of its success. The quality of the product has held up well in my exterior applications both from the color fastness and adhesive properties.

I enjoyed working with you as a professional in the field who worked hard to make sure that my needs were met as a client. Your promptness and professionalism was most welcome. Thanks again for a wonderful experience!" - Wade Slater, Slater Yacht Services, L.L.C.


"I would like to take a moment and express our happiness with the quality of work your company has provided. Our customers have been extremely pleased with the timeliness and with the professionalism you and your staff have shown. We are very pleased to have a working relationship with a company that prides itself on taking care of our customers. I look forward to continuing our relationship into the next boating season." - Carvey Iannuzzi, Manager, Skipper Bud’s


"I can’t overemphasize our pleasure in seeing the work that you did on our boat, Suture Fancy. My wife and I were incredibly disappointed when we viewed the results of the painted name that someone else had done. We had serious doubts that the thick, messy paint that had been laid down would come off without damage to the transom surface. Since the boat was in the water we thought that we would be forced to live with this until the boat was pulled for the winter.

Kathy, we were heartened by your enthusiasm and optimism. Moveover, your belief that you could completely remove and reconstruct the name while the boat was still in the water was completely unexpected. I must say that you were as good as your word. The previous paintwork was gone without a trace and your bright and elegant work was in its place almost before we knew it. Fantastic! Paul said you were talented and skillful; he was right." - Edwin Vann
